Can you confirm that installing Kaspersky will only slow everything down?
(Shit it's feels like using two condoms at the same time in order to provide more protection haha)
yeah, while I personally use kaspersky as my only running protection (remember my windows machine isn't really used online much, instead I use a real computer that has security as a builtin feature...unless you'd like my root password ;) )...running 2 virus checkers is a recipe for A. disaster and B. getting a virus. Also make sure only ONE of the installed packages is doing realtime virus protection, as you'll end up with them clubbing each other to death all the time.
I had to get rid of Norton BTW...the older version thought my USB steering wheel was a virus ( no, really it did) and the new one was SO fucking slow I lost the will to live.
Of those I have come across, Kaspersky and AVG appear to be most useful.
